Dichter der leichteren Gattung: Epigramm, Elegie, erotische Spielereien, führte bei den Römern zuerst die lyrischen Versmaße der griech. Dichter ein, die er nachahmte und umarbeitete, jedoch in origineller ächtröm. Weise. Die Sammlung der ihm zugeschriebenen Gedichte wurde zu Verona im Anfang des 14. Jahrh. von Benvenuto di Campesani aufgefunden; letzte Ausgabe von Haupt, Leipzig 1853.
